A correction and an update:
: Some does appear to deal with an AI,
: and there are repeated references to SERE (survive, escape, reveal,
: escape) which are the steps pilots are trained to take when shot down
: behind enemy lines.
The steps are survive, EVADE, reveal, escape. Sorry, thinko.
The update is that the carnage.bungie.org is straining a little under demand, as you might imagine. It may be best to ponder the content before browsing the forum there, or Louis may have to add more refrigerant to the server case.
-- Steve thinks that service might be a tad irregular for the next bit.
